The Eternal Place Within

Deep within every life, no matter how dull or ineffectual it may seem from the outside,

There is something eternal happening.

                                                                                John O’Donohue, Anam Cara, p. 128

who are we, really?

what are we, really

we walk through this life

with bodies that are all too frail

and prone to affliction

we walk through life assailed by

powers from without

battered by demons within

we feel our mortality

and yet

in our wounded tissue

we carry the holy

there is an eternal place within

we carry the divine

which is woven into our being

hidden, sometimes

it dark crevices

but there to be

awakened

protected

cherished

nourished

Soul

Spirit

Sacred Presence

this is our greatest work

this is how we survive

and even flourish

by coming into fellowship,

companionship,

by coming home

to our Sacred Self
